Jeroen Hertzberger led Netherlands to win Punjab Gold Cup hockey tournament
Thanks to Jeroen Hertzberger, Netherlands won the Punjab Gold Cup hockey tournament and prepare for the 2010 World Cup. Jeroen Hertzberger was awarded as the player of the Tournament due to his impressive form. This 23-year old said that it was a pleasure to play in front of such a huge audience in India. No doubt about that India tour will be memorable in his memory and he feels happy when it comes to visit India once again for hockey game. Before the start of this tournament, Netherlands supremacy was not questionable either and they proved it with the tournament win. They took the win over India team despite the lack of some super starts like Taeke Taekema and Teun de Nooijer.
However, India played well but failed to use their chance to make goal and increase the difference against the opponent team. According to the former India goalkeeper Romeo James, goalkeeper Baljit Singh was the star performer for India team. It is clear that missing easy chance was the reason of India’s defeat.
